Welcome, friend! Relax & rest awhile, if you please. I'm an ordinary girl, a follower of Christ, mama to Gabriel, Heidi, & Aidan; and wife to Evan. Here in this little space of the online world, I share all manner of bookish things, including full content reviews, writerly snippets, encouragement for everyday life, and a whole collection of names & their meanings.

  3. arwen-undomiel.com! I LOVE that site. I go there all the time!

    Love these names! What's funny is I have a character named Donovan.

    Speaking of my character named Donovan, were you still interested in critiquing my story, Secrets of Camelot? You had offered on my blog but I don't know your email address so was unsure how to contact you about it. I COMPLETELY understand if you don't want to take on such a project, I know it's a lot of work. But if you were still interested in it I'd love to send it your way! My email address is Lauriloth@gmail.com if you want to contact me or let me know your address or whatever. Man...I feel pushy or something. It's not that AT ALL. Trust me, I understand if you don't have time to do this or whatever. PLEASE tell me if you don't want to. I just wasn't sure how to get back to you about it so I thought I'd mention it.

To each is given a bag of tools,
A shapeless mass, and a book of rules,
And each must make, ere life is flown,
A stumbling block or a stepping stone.
